 "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 early reviews: Funnier than the original, with ton of surprises")
When Guardians of the Galaxy released back in 2015, it was an experiment for Marvel; the first film of the Marvel Comic Universe till then that was not a serious, ‘save the world’ superhero film. [caption id=“attachment_3062014” align=“alignleft” width=“380”]  The poster for the film.[/caption] Instead, it was funny, satirical take on the superhero genre. The film had great laugh out loud moments and an equally amazing soundtrack to boot. Given the film’s victory with both critics and at the box office, a sequel was almost immediately in the cards, and now it seems Marvel has another crowd-pleaser on its hands. Vol. 2 scopes the life of a dysfunctional family of intergalactic outcasts and their unwitting involvement in saving the universe from almost certain annihilation. A recent press screening in the US had critics and journalists emerging from the theatre to share their initial thoughts on the sequel, with most of them offering plenty of praise for the film and its place in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 releases in India on 5 May. Here are some early reactions on Twitter:

I say without hyperbole: #GotGVol2 is MCU at its very best. Grand adventure with intimate stakes. Uses every damn color in the crayon box. 🌈

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is funnier than the original, a ton of surprises, and an unexpected emotional profoundness. I am Groot.

Don't think I've heard so much laughter at a press screening. People seemed to really be digging Guardians Vol. 2. Can't say more (yet)
